Reporting Date: 22.6.2012
Peter and his five guests were on a fullday gamedrive and were hoping to see some Lions. They spend the better part of the morning around Sopa plains looking for the Sopa pride. Around midday they came across a lone lioness sitting under a thicket with a huge herd of Buffalo nearby. After a short while they came across the rest of the pride and after a short while the lions started heading towards the buffaloes. To everyone's suprise the lions sorrounded a lone buffalo and her calf who had been lagging behind and tried to take down the calf. After several attempts the lions had to flee because the rest of the herd came to the rescue.
